Here’s a poster we drew for Angel Street, the play opening tomorrow night (Halloween) in Sparta. It’s based on the old movie Gaslight, where Charles Boyer tries to convince his new wife, Ingrid Bergman, she’s crazy. We used an actual gas flame for the lamp illustration and found the gradient made a nice, spooky evening background, also.

For this event, ISI printed programs, designed flyers, and put together the cast board. (Most of ISI is also volunteering, as club members.)

The Trojan Playmakers’ production of Uncommonly Noble, a brand new play by Cheri Choate, was a successful fundraiser for the newly-renovated Alleghany Community Auditorium, April 28th. ISI helped with graphics including logo design, flyers, TV slides, programs and DVD art.

DVD art for Uncommonly Noble, performed in the new Alleghany Community Auditorium by the Trojan Playmakers on April 28, 2012. The production will be broadcast on Alleghany Community Television.

If you missed it, the show was video taped by Charlie Scott of Alleghany Community Television and will be broadcast later this month on Alleghany Cablevision and Skybest TV. Imaging Specialists is currently working on titles and credits for the TV production. DVDs will be available.

This production was a real home-grown project. The Playmakers collaborated with many area businesses and organizations to assist the Friends of the Auditorium in their efforts to rebuild and repurpose the old Sparta School Auditorium.

Making it all look easy was a cast and crew of hard working area elementary, middle and high school students who (we’re sure) will be involved with many more such productions.
